I live like 15 minutes from where it went down. One child is shot and in critical condition. A video just showed paramedics giving the child CPR. Let's hope he/she will be ok. Media briefing at 3 pm my time (central).

This is no good. I hope they have the situation under control.

But I find this odd...the MSM is spending time talking about the blizzard hitting DC...but have yet to mention this.

I'm not trying to derail to that topic, just an observation.

Oh no, I understand. I think there isn't too much attention because it is already over, the shooter caught, and only one child in critical condition (which doesn't diminish the fact of a child who's life is in extreme danger).

UPDATE: Both students were 9th graders. Kids are getting out as normal at 3 pm. I might know more a little later about the victim if I don't get a chance to hear anything on the news. My husband works at Huntsville Hospital, where the child was taken.

When I was in my senior year of high school (2005) I remember a drill where they announced something weird over the intercom and the teachers closed all the classroom doors, locked them, and we were all herded to a side of the room where the "shooter" could not see us through the window. We did that several times. It was really creepy even though it was just a drill.

Sad and unfortunate. As a parent I am not sure exactly how I would react to another child (yes I believe at that age they are still children) murdering my child.

I certainly do not think I would take losing my second child easily (the first was lost in a miscarriage). I would hope that I could keep my sanity, but imagine it might be difficult.

Oh I understand. I think I would be inconsolable if something happened to my one year old son. Not even having my second child in August would help me out of that kind of grief.
